Green Matamp GT120 MV: Input - 1st Gain Stage - Depth / FAC - Gain Knob - 2nd Gain Stage - Bax EQ - PI - MV - Presence
Orange OR120 Overdrive: Input - 1st Gain Stage - Bax EQ - Gain Knob - 2nd Gain Stage - Depth / FAC - PI - MV - Presence
In this video we’re going to be comparing a Green Matamp GT120 and an Orange OR120 Overdrive. Both amps have a factory Post Phase Invertor MV control with a gain knob to adjust the amount of preamp gain, both amps feature a Depth or FAC control-this control is a variable high pass filter, adjusting the knob changes the lower cutoff frequency of the filter impacting the amount of low frequency bass signal we are allowing to pass through it. Both amps feature a 2-band Baxandall EQ along with a presence control, and both amps put out 120w RMS clean power.
The circuit elements between the two are very similar with one notable difference, which is the location of the Depth / FAC knob and the EQ sections in the signal path.
With the Matamp we have our input, followed by our first gain stage, followed by our Depth / FAC control, followed by the gain control, which leads into the 2nd gain stage before hitting the two band Bax EQ and heading into the Phase invertor and the power amp section.
With the Orange, we have our input, followed by our first gain stage, followed by our two band Bax EQ, followed by the gain control, which leads into the 2nd gain stage before hitting the Depth / FAC control and heading into the Phase invertor and the power amp section.
So essentially the Depth / FAC and EQ sections are swapped between the two amps. In the Matamp we hit the Depth knob early and EQ late, in the Orange we hit the EQ early and the FAC knob late.
